All you need to do is get a spanner which fits on the large fan nut (from memory it's about 1" or slightly larger), put the spanner on the bolt so the spanner sits upwards and hit it a few times with a hammer in the reverse direction of fan rotation (cover the fenders etc with a cloth so the spanner doesn't go flying off and dent a panel). After a couple of hits it normally shocks loose, but if it is siezed on there it can take a while.

Just stick a old wiper arm hook bit between one of the pulley bolts and the bolt, then bolt the other end of the arm to the battery tray. That should hold your pulley good Bozza Hope you know what I mean. That usually pulls out stuck thermos fans. If you really start cracking it, pull out the radiator and shroud, then grind off the fan blades. That will give you way better access.
